Summary Introduction

To determine:

If the hierarchical or decentralized approach should be adopted for leadership.

Introduction:

Hierarchical and decentralized are approaches for a leadership which are applied according to the people to be managed and the business situation. The Hierarchical approach follows the step by step management structure like a pyramid. The less experienced and less skilled people are kept at the lowest level and they take directions from the supervisors and supervisors take directions from the managers at the higher level. On the other hand, the decentralized approach is applied where employees are self-managed and experienced. In the decentralized approach, employees are given their own responsibilities individually or in teams.
